Covid - 19: How to strengthen immunity?

Updated: Apr 26, 2020

100 thousands of people in the world are under observation of sanitary services. Experts agree - the emergence of a confirmed case of coronavirus infection in the world and in each country separate is only a matter of time. It is known that the disease is most severe in older people and those with reduced immunity. So how do we strengthen our immune system?


How to prepare the body for the fight against coronavirus?


The coronavirus is literally knocking on our door. Subsequent cases of illness in Europe remind you that in the fight against a difficult opponent, you have to take the most massive guns. Can you protect yourself against infection? Experts repeat that it is crucial to take care of hygiene first and foremost. Washing your hands with soap and water or with an alcohol-based anti-bacterial gel eliminates the virus that is on your hands. The second important issue is to keep the right distance from people who cough and sneeze, which means a minimum meter of distance from the person who spreads germs.

Ways to strengthen immunity


The key is to provide our body with the right dose of vitamins and minerals. The immune system can be enhanced in a natural way by using the proven anti-inflammatory properties of various products.

Below is a list of products that will help strengthen the body in the fight against viruses:


  • Elderberry has scientifically proven health-promoting properties. First of all, it has an anti-inflammatory effect. Contains vitamins C and B, flavonoids, phenolic acids and anthocyanins.

  • Grapefruit seeds also strengthen the immune system. They are a source of vitamin C and antioxidants.

  • Aloe juice supplies our body with salicylic acid, lupeol and magnesium lactate.

  • Garlic - grandma's way to catch a cold. It is also worth using it as a preventive measure. Garlic is a valuable source of B vitamins, as well as vitamins A, E and C. Due to the high content of allicin, it is called a natural antibiotic.

It doesn't guarantee that using these products, you are safe from coronavirus. It is just prevention methods or ways to strengthen your immunity.


Immunity comes from the intestines


Probiotics strengthen the intestinal microbiota. It is extremely important not only in the processes of digestion and metabolism but also in shaping the body's resistance. Besides, metabolites of probiotic bacteria block the development of some pathogenic microorganisms.

Scientists believe that up to 80% of cells that guard our immunity come from the intestines. Therefore, it is worth taking care of strengthening the digestive system and rebuilding bacterial flora.

It is worth focusing primarily on products that are rich in natural probiotics, such as:

  • Sauerkraut,

  • pickled cucumbers,

  • sourdough beet,

  • bread sourdough.

Fermented products that are rich in bacteria from the Lactobacillus strain will also help. It is a good idea to permanently introduce products such as natural yoghurt, buttermilk, curd or kefir to your diet. The product's label contains information on its composition.

All these products contain natural cultures of lactic acid bacteria that have anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties.

In people consuming large amounts of yoghurt, an increased number of bacteria from the Lactobacillus strain and less Enterobacteria were observed in the intestines, which in turn are responsible, among others for inflammation in the body.

Help yourself by eating healthy and make your hygiene your priority. It will help you to strengthen your immunity, and hopefully, you can avoid these disease or recover from it easier.


Take care of yourself and isolate yourself whenever possible.

Thanks for your time.
